L-Names for Babies

Looking for L-names for babies? Here are the most common L-names — both boy names and girl names, mixed together — in the United States.

These are what you might call “modern American names” in that each of these has appeared at least once in the SSA’s national dataset, which currently covers 1880 through 2016. To be included in the dataset, a baby name needs to have been bestowed five (or more) times in the U.S. in at least one of those years.
